Soc., 134, 35, 14322-14325. doi: 10.1021/ja30654460002-7863http://hdl.handle.net/10347/18480The first highly enantioselective intermolecular (4 + 2) cycloaddition between allenes and dienes is reported. The reaction provides good yields of optically active cyclohexenes featuring diverse substitution patterns and up to three stereocenters. Key to the success of the process is the use of newly designed axially chiral N-heterocyclic carbene–gold catalystseng© 2012 American Chemical Societyjournal article10.1021/ja30654461520-5126open access
